Like the band's record debut, this album features traditional blues covers and the guitar work of Mike Bloomfield and Elvin Bishop. Unlike the debut, Bishop also turns in some guitar solos, and drummer Sam Lay had left the band, to be replaced by Billy Davenport.[2] The social complexion of the band changed as well; ruled by Butterfield in the beginning, it evolved into more of a democracy both in terms of financial reward and input into repertoire.[3]
One result was the inclusion of two extended jams at the instigation of Bloomfield following the group's successful appearance at The Fillmore in San Francisco during March alongside Jefferson Airplane.[4] Both reflected his love of jazz, as \"Work Song\" had become a hard bop standard, and the title track \"East-West\" used elements of modal jazz as introduced by Miles Davis on his ground-breaking Kind of Blue album. Bloomfield had become enamored of work by John Coltrane in that area, especially his incorporation of ideas from Indian raga music.[5] The album also included Michael Nesmith's song \"Mary, Mary,\" which Nesmith would soon record with his band The Monkees - although original pressings of East-West did not include a songwriter's credit for this track.
On October 29, 2001, a reissue of this album remastered by Bob Irwin at Sundazed Studios and coupled with the debut appeared on Rhino WEA UK for the European market.

Noted music critic and prolific author Dave Marsh contributed a substantial essay in the liner notes regarding the historic importance of the song, both the original 1966 recording and the live versions.
Marsh, interviewing Naftalin, notes that the tune was inspired by an all-night LSD trip that \"East-West\"'s primary songwriter Mike Bloomfield experienced in the fall of 1965, during which the late guitarist \"sa
